Abstract: The object of the present invention is to overcome conventional demerits of pullulan powders prepared by conventional techniques, i.e., they could not be homogeneously mixed with non-reducing saccharides composed of glucose units when mixed together, and the resulting mixtures do not easily dissolve in water; and to provide a pullulan-containing powder with an improved rate of water dissolution, as well as to provide preparations and uses thereof. The present invention solves the above object by providing a pullulan-containing powder which uniformly comprises pullulan as a main ingredient and a non-reducing saccharide, and their process and uses; wherein the pullulan-containing powder is prepared by the steps of preparing a solution dissolving pullulan and a non-reducing saccharide homogeneously, pulverizing the solution, and collecting the resulting pullulan-containing powder. The powder has an improved rate of water dissolution, while retaining satisfactory resistance to humidity without fear of causing separation between the pullulan and the non-reducing saccharide.

Abstract: This invention is a neonatal airway adapter (10) with a sliding internal passage (54), which virtually eliminates void volumes (112) within the bore (76) of the airways, such that mixing of the exhales pages with void gases is reduced, and the waveform of the breath is maintained without undue distortion. Furthermore, the virtual elimination of void volumes reduces the level of re-breathing. The neonatal airway adapter connects to endotracheal tube adapters is such a way as to nullify the effect of the differing internal diameters (20) and internal lengths which are used in ET adapters currently available. The cross section of the internal bore of the airway through which the breath flows from the ET adapter to the connector of the ventilator is maintained almost constant, especially in the region of the gas sampling point (66), to ensure that reasonable conditions of laminar flow, and accurate sampling are maintained.

Abstract: A non-rotating electrodeless high-intensity discharge lamp system using circularly polarized microwaves.  In an embodiment, the lamp system has a first rectangular waveguide (1) to propagate linearly polarized microwaves generated from a microwave source; an input circular waveguide (2) linearly connected to the first rectangular waveguide; a second rectangular waveguide (3) closed at an end thereof, and perpendicularly connected to a circumferential surface of the input circular waveguide; an elliptical waveguide (4) linearly connected to the input circular waveguide such that the major axis of the elliptical waveguide is rotated to a predetermined angle relative to a horizontal surface (or the wider surface) of the input rectangular waveguide; a second circular waveguide (6) linearly connected to the elliptical waveguide; and a discharge lamp (5) housed in a mesh cover(7), and supported by the second circular waveguide while being held on a reflecting mirror (9). The lamp system thus effectively converts the linearly polarized microwaves into the circularly polarized microwaves due to a geometrical structure thereof caused by the angle at which the major axis of the elliptical waveguide is rotated relative to the horizontal surface of the input waveguide, thereby allowing the circularly polarized microwaves to reach the discharge lamp.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method of carrying out a cryptographic task using a public key.  The inventive method can be used to reduce the computation load of the verifier, consisting of entity B, in a secure electronic transaction incorporating a message authentication, identification or electronic signature mechanism.  Said method consists in delegating one part of the calculations to a not necessarily-trustworthy external entity C without diminishing the verifier's level of conviction regarding the verification step.  More specifically, the method consists in dividing the verification task into at least two steps (6, 15) and (8, 17), such that at least step 6, 15 can be executed by external entity C.  In particular, the method can be applied to the RSA (Rivest, Shamir, Adleman) electronic signature system and to certain message authentication protocols based on the discrete logarithm.

Abstract: A smoke detector is shown in which blue light is directed through a scattering volume ( 9 ) from a radiation emitter ( 3 ) and infra-red radiation is also directed through the scattering volume ( 9 ) from an infra-red source ( 3 A). Radiation forward-scattered by any particles in the scattering volume ( 9 ) is directed by a mirror ( 13 ) onto a photodiode ( 15 ) which produces an output to control means ( 16 ). The emitters ( 3,3 A) are pulsed at different frequencies, enabling the control means ( 16 ) to produce separate signals ( 21,23 ) corresponding respectively to the scattered blue light and the scattered infra-red radiation. For smoke particles, significantly more blue light is scattered than infra-red radiation, but this is not so much the case for non-smoke particles. A comparator ( 25 ) takes the ratio of the two signals ( 21,23 ) to produce a smoke-dependent warning output. In order to reduce power consumption and increase the life of the blue light emitter ( 3 ), the apparatus normally operates in a monitoring mode in which the infra-red emitter ( 3 A) is pulsed intensively but at a low flashing rate, and the blue light emitter ( 3 ) is maintained inoperative, until infra-red radiation scattered by particles in the volume ( 9 ) cause the photodiode ( 15 ) to produce a sufficient output, whereupon the blue light emitter ( 3 ) is rendered operative.

Abstract: The present invention provides a reinforced tape including a visually transparent backing layer, a reinforcing scrim preferably of fibers made of visually transparent material along one surface of the backing, and a layer of transparent adhesive covering but not totally wetting the reinforcing scrim so that the scrim is visible along the backing layer before the tape is applied to give a user a visual indication of the strength of the tape. The indexes of refraction of the material of the fibers in the scrim and of the adhesive are similar so that when the layer of adhesive is pressed against a substrate through the backing layer, the adhesive will more totally wet the fibers of the reinforcing scrim, causing them to become significantly less visible in the reinforced tape adhered to the substrate.
